The Next One is the Best One - Short Clip on Parshas Noach (5784)
Description
The best is yet to come - an idea from the Rachmastrivka Rebbe and Frank Lloyd Wright. From this year’s parsha shiur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T08LNHaytbY&t=2s. Frank Lloyd Wright. He was once asked, of all of your designs, famous architect, accomplished, award winning architect, of all of your designs, which is your favorite? And you know what he answered? My next one. His favorite was my next one. You're not done. Your next one. Your next, your best is yet to come. Your best davening, your best learning. Your best parenting, your best marriage moment, your best eved hashem moment, your best selflessness. Our best is yet to come. Who cares what age and what stage of life? Our best is yet to come. So we say, noach shelo nivra. I've not yet done enough. It would have been better if I weren't here. I have more to do. I have more to become. I have a better way to live. I have a better version of me to show the world. Taka, for you. It's good you're here. But the person who says, "noach shenivra." Do you know who I am and what I've done? Do you know how much I've accomplished? How much I've achieved? You, noach shelo nivra, would have been better if you weren't here.
